181 Acres, Dawson County, Platte River Waterfowl Lore

Platte River Waterfowl Lore was better known as The Drakes Nest Hunting Club and is located in Darr, Nebraska just ten miles west of Lexington, Nebraska off Interstate 80 at exit 231. The Drakes Nest Hunting Club was a quality waterfowl hunting destination for hunters from all over the country that wanted a top notch waterfowl hunting experience and a wine and dine experience after the hunt. This business ran successfully for nearly 30 years.

This property sits smack dab in the middle of the Central Flyway so during migration times the sky is full of waterfowl. The Seller has maintained this property over the years with weed and tree management, specifically cottonwood tree removal and Phragmites grass removal. This specific type of grass is an invasive grass that absorbs water and spreads. With this maintenance, the river corridor is wide here, and conducive for waterfowl.

Platte River Waterfowl Lore can also be considered a multi species property as many wild turkeys and white tail deer inhabit the property as well. After the morning hunt, enjoy sitting in the cabin and watch the wildlife come alive. Turkeys will come to the patio window and strut in front of you while wood ducks and other waterfowl land in the pond just off the patio.

Some of the amenities that come with this property include, a top notch propane heated deer stand located in a strategic location, big game hoist to hang your game, a processing table with hole in the center to dispose of scraps, good trails around the property and nearly 22± acres to plant a food plot. No matter what your quarry is, the desirability for a waterfowl spot is at a premium. This property is set up to start enjoying right out of the gate. Please contact me, Jon Farley, to show you this fabulous retreat as I was a guest here for many years and can explain many of the feature benefits that are associated with this top notch hunting property.

Agent note: the east/west fence quality is excellent. The road into the property is excellent!

Located just south of Wellfleet, the Wellfleet Grazing & Hunting Ranch presents a rare opportunity to own a highly improved and exceptionally scenic grassland property in the heart of southwest Nebraska. Combining productive native pasture, strong recreational appeal, and thoughtful land stewardship, this property offers both immediate usability and long-term value.

A Premier Grassland Holding
Spanning 250.83± taxed grass acres, this ranch features canyon terrain typical of the region, creating a diverse landscape of rolling upland pasture, protected draws, and deep pockets with fertile bottoms. The soils and native grasses provide excellent grazing potential, while the natural contours of the land offer ideal protection and bedding areas for both livestock and wildlife.

Significant cedar tree removal has been completed across the property, improving grazing efficiency, enhancing grass production, and allowing for easier access throughout the ranch. Multiple runoff holding ponds have also been constructed to help capture seasonal moisture and improve water availability across the landscape.

Reliable Improvements

The property is well secured with quality barbed-wire fencing, and automatic gates along Nile Road offer convenient entry while maintaining security and livestock control.

Along the southern edge of the property, an RV/camper electrical hookup creates the perfect location for a weekend retreat or hunting camp. Positioned with sweeping views of the surrounding canyon terrain, this site offers an ideal place to enjoy quiet evenings overlooking the ranch and the surrounding landscape.

Exceptional Wildlife Habitat
This area of Lincoln County is well known for its strong populations of whitetail deer and wild turkey, and the natural terrain of the property provides excellent habitat for both. Deep draws, natural cover, and protected pockets throughout the ranch offer outstanding hunting opportunities.

In the northeast corner of the property, a small portion of Medicine Creek touches the ranch, adding scenic character and further enhancing wildlife activity. From this vantage point, the property opens to expansive views stretching north across the valley.

Several secluded pockets within the ranch would also lend themselves well to food plot development, allowing a future owner to further enhance the hunting potential.
